Axim, Ghana (December 12, 2016)


Another great week down! This week was a little crazy though. First off, it was the Ghanaian Election and things have been getting pretty heated over who they wanted to win. Where I am the people are really poor so they did not like the current president at all. The atmosphere was crazy. The streets have been filled since the beginning of last week with tons of people cheering and dancing and supporting who they wanted to win. Also, they love loud music a lot, and they have been blaring it loud all day and night. It's kinda of fun dancing to it while taking a nice cold bucket shower. Anyways the person they wanted for president won so they have been going crazy since they found that out. It's cool seeing how happy and excited they all are, though. The election was on Wednesday, and we weren't even allowed to go out that day because of how crazy all they people were.

 

We also have a pretty sweet new investigator who showed up to church this week. She’s in her twenties and her name is Linda. We were only able to meet with her for a short time, but she told us that she really loves our church and she has seen the examples of family friends who are members that she really likes. I think she will be a sweet investigator, and I can’t wait to meet with her more. Things have been great, though, here in Ghana! I can’t wait to see what this next week will bring!
